4. What supervolcanoes could erupt in the future?

5. What happens during the eruption?
6. Does the sun have an effect on volcanism?
In the climate model, both the reduced output from the sun and the increased amount of volcanic aerosols {fine particles which reflect sunlight away from the earth and which are ejected into the stratosphere by volcanic eruptions} contribute a sizeable amount to the northern hemisphere cooling seen in temperature reconstruction, their relative importance depends upon uncertain estimates of exactly how much each changed relative to century later.
